be an hour in your sky and you know the paddock i led the way and quietly. at a little ways high added. with so few opportunities it's no wonder girls from this village are still leaving for singapore. momo says despite what happened to her she doesn't try to stop them. or the media. they mean. to me. to be a good highly. valued. the wily. tintin is one domestic worker who did not help. cheese the fifteen year old who accidentally fell from her employer's apartment

building she is still recovering from her injuries. she shows us the passport she used to get a job in singapore almost all the information in it is false at home she's known as ins in and she was born in two thousand and two not one nine hundred ninety three she confirms what happened to her in singapore and me out of all of them then i think. that i had that i sing a lot i mean. i want to not have that i think women. and yet i think i did you know that a look at that. she'd gone to work in singapore hoping to help support her impoverished family but because of the money she owed to her recruitment agents she came home with nothing. now her mother has to take care of her instead

alone so me out with him you. live in women mood in the never ending. the deodhar the. zinzan fractured her spine when she fell but is now able to walk slowly off the donors paid for her to have surgery. but she may need another operation soon. diana meant out on one hand and helping the l a ballerina. rule. she shows us her scars. it's unlikely they'll ever go away. but how did a fifteen year old pass for twenty three. we've received a tip off about the person who allegedly helped to make this happen do you. deny being given a little you know battle

a noble and it or to nominate. the man in the picture is louis song play tongue. he is a member of parliament from in mars' chin state. an online search tells us he's also the director of a company called me and mark global manpower link. the company name sounds awfully familiar story we've seen it before on a sign inside the recruitment agency in yang gone that we discovered in two thousand and sixteen was illegally sending girls to singapore you also say. this was despite men must ban on women working overseas as domestic workers. the website for the company lists several phone numbers. when we cross check them against the contact list of the country's politicians we find

a match one of the numbers belongs to louis song play tongue. we decided to give him a cool. oh good. we try the second number on the website. this time we have better luck. oh good. oh who did some research just says she's looking to send a nineteen year old domestic worker to singapore and a friend has recommended the agency. but the woman says she's no longer able to help. and i think. you know me. you know.

i don't i don't want to donate i don't want it oh or lose you know. you know. if what she says is true louis was managing director of a company involved in illegally sending domestic workers to singapore in contravention of the two thousand and fourteen ban. to find out more we travel to the outskirts of yang gone. looking for the office of myanmar global manpower and link. according to the address on the company's website this should be it.

inside a man refuses to speak on camera but he tells us the house was leased by an employment agency which moved out recently even if it isn't easy and the neighbor has proved more approachable they ask us to hide their identities. we show them a picture of louis' owned and ask if they've seen or recognize him something. to do something at the pump and a model bill announcing the. moment from the company turning to a mom pollutants i'm hearing from the. treatment. from. mrs fielden pub and over over. on the. moms in the movie on the little events with the. dad of the other six know nothing.

nothing that they take. who are. not all helping. when one no one east spoke to louis song he confirmed he was the managing director of me and ma global manpower link until two thousand and fifteen and remained a director until two thousand and sixteen. he denied knowing the company was involved in illegal activities and rejected all of the ins ins allegations but he did admit to owning the house where the company had its office and that he had visited recently. agencies in the business of moving under-age girls overseas need one thing possible with fake birth dates. a street near the young kong passport office is host to a thriving industry. for

a fee possible brokers can help clients circumvent all sorts of bureaucratic hassles and apparently even a few laws early on. we randomly choose one and tell her a couple stories we're trying to send a nineteen year old domestic worker to singapore. someone doesn't want you to tell a. lonely. nut job. that. a second broker we approach is equally direct of the other lemme see what. you did. then. i'll follow up.

with so many people making money off this illegal trade it's hard to stem the tide and local labor activist who says the blanket ban is doing more harm than good. corporate little and here to need much you need a well known a a so we are on a nearly. by monica kelana solution to not. go think on a tailwind can be made new and mean it. she says the situation is also more nuanced than it appears child labor is not uncommon in myanmar and domestic workers here can be as young as eleven years old. even among the young. child don't think. that i will. make one of the young israel how will the

ne million gently in it was out in. your. at me and mas labor department we learn the government is acutely aware of the trafficking that's happening under its nose but spokes person kin way who says her department can only track the one hundred thirty women who went legally to work in singapore before the ban it's harder to help if an underage girl leaves me and more illegally anything nearly in tears at the ready. the and the. about of those not on the day another mia. thought clear the same of the mere thought nyama me at the world when you were. not taught it. it appears that when there are cases of exploitation and abuse the labor department

expects the traffickers to look after the girls they traffic. we ask if myanmar and singapore are working together to solve the problem and you know never on monday in atlanta who don't want all they are when other mayors or seen one not only people in anthem obama or the inability. back in singapore it's clear to see the band isn't working. every week hundreds of domestic workers from myanmar gather here to enjoy their day off. most if not all of them have managed to circumvent the ban. some of the like they are still in their teens. when we raise the issue with singapore's ministry of manpower they responded in writing saying the passport

remains the primary document for identification and age verification it is thus important for thora ts in the source country to ensure the accuracy of the details in the passports. since a sister's death cho-cho is still grieving. when we first met at the funeral she told us why mine was twenty three or twenty four. but now she says she was too scared to reveal the truth. their agent had instructed her to lie to land the machine in importing and then boom and the like. it's hot letting go. churchill still can't believe a sister killed herself and them home. in the end of.

the year and have a meal at the mishearing now buy me a wine at a new meet on friday and. the two sisters never got to be in singapore. had been trying for days to reach wine wine when she received news of her death. she still doesn't know what happened. we've come to the condominium where wine wine was walking and where she did legislate jumps in fruitless to her death. is hoping to meet her sister's employer but she's scared to go inside. so we offer to make the initial approach for ha ha. but the employer doesn't want to meet churchill instead she tells security to throw us out there got

here. certainly a film a domestic monkey finds a fine i'm good at it with the students my interest and confrontation she just wants to know what happened to my younger sister. he's just saying he's a sorry yeah what happens if you sneak up here with no. one. whine whine only seventeen when she died. doesn't think she'll ever know why. the looney beam hope that he got down easy and be that you want to go instead to do well mom don't you know. that no maybe you mean the real me

arabia the women say they were abused and mistreated while in prison. the u.n. calls on saudi arabia to make public the trials held over the murder of saudi journalist. relics of a former era in ukraine while the issue of corruption won't go away in the run up to sunday's presidential election. to be with you. live. a musical maestro leads tributes national service to remember the victims of the new zealand mosque attacks. well we begin in saudi arabia where three female activists have been granted temporary release after spending ten months in prison they've been freeze after the

second hearing of their trial which is still continuing and reports the others will be released on sunday where women say they've been sexually harassed given electric shocks and fooled by prison guards saudi arabia's government denies the women have been mistreated. well several reports named the female bloggers as a man on the john as these are abusive and academic or on the heart of they've been charged in parts with contacting international media and human rights groups they were among the more than eleven female activists arrested last may including rights campaigner. her brother has alleged that. the a top adviser to crown prince mohammed bin solomon who was fired over the killing of journalists . oversaw the torture of his sister well a southern a if took if her car is an international human rights lawyer also

a senior fellow at georgetown university joins us now by skype from sterling virginia why do you think these women have been freed. well i think this is a. very large human rights you know so you know it doesn't record when it comes to human rights especially you know it could be a journalist who shot you and so again releasing three hundred eleven you know this is you know somebody else that let's not forget these women keening electrocuting waterboarding were forced to break their fast or in ramadan and so this is something that we hope will lead to more releases. do you see this is something as a victory for human rights defenders the fact that these three women have been have been released well no because intemperately not a permanent release didn't temporarily arrest release they've been given court

appointed probably because you know she was their own attorney so they're going to have to record it yet again this is a very tiny symbolic tip of a very large human rights group. what do you think this particular case says about the saudi legal system well first of all you know the saudi legal system probably couldn't spell the word human rights so how do you think that there's been so much political pressure in the wake of the multitool you're germany are you you knew you know there's been enough pressure on. this is that a small gesture but again they need a lot more done to get this only to be released and they need to release the other eight of them. terms of the reports that we've held heard from these three women they have alleged torture jury in that ten month long captivity or what do you make of those claims. again you know the government comes in

the assassination of a journalist and you sure you know don't cancel it in turkey so no reason. you know anything that would be. ok arsalan iftikhar we'll have to leave it there but thanks very much for your thoughts on this if the car joining us from starving in virginia thank you you. know a u.n. investigator is calling on riyadh to publicly open the trial of eleven suspects accused of involvement in the birds are off the journalist seymour hersh orji the special rapporteur on extradition executions agnes kellerman said the closed door hearings are falling short of international standards she also called on the kingdom to release the names all of the defendants. is the u.n. representative for the sea international she says so he is trying its best to treat the trial as an internal matter. this is

a trial that they are you know that's taking place in saudi arabia they've invited various representatives from france from the u.k. from russia from china from the u.s. to observe this trial and they are following international standards here is the un special rapporteur coming out with this statement today saying that it is fully below international standards that this is not an internal affair when you decide to munt a journalist on foreign territory in the foreign consulate and so it's a very strong statement by the u.n. and let's hope that it doesn't fall completely deaf if the saudi arabia saying that we've identified these eleven people and and this is a fair trial that we've invited some foreigners to even it so that if they have nothing to be afraid of then why not actually open it up why not allow for human rights observers for the u.n. themselves to come and to come in and observe for journalists the last time time

again to the trial why don't they let them in as well so you know you can't have it both ways you can't stand there and say we are following our judicial process we have nothing to hide don't fight decent people who are to blame but then also not allow any sort of transparency you know the fact is that when this trial you know comes to its end saudi arabia will expect that this whole matter goes to bed because they've you know how their trial and they and they've had their proceedings but there's no way that the international community will accept this and indeed there has been no transparency in the trial and that's what we really have to remember here. her germany has extended a ban on arms exports to saudi arabia until september thirtieth a government spokesman says no new contracts will be approved between now and then a temporary ban was in place until november after the murder of jamal khashoggi and

was jus to expire this month meanwhile the united states secretly authorized several companies to sell nuclear power technology to saudi arabia u.s. energy secretary rick perry reportedly approved sixty one weapons they can be more from washington. it's been a cozy relationship from the start donald trump selected saudi arabia as the location for his first foreign trip the u.s. president made clear the kingdom is a priority that's why u.s. lawmakers are now asking questions about reports the trumpet ministration recently granted secret approvals to at least one u.s. company to sell nuclear power technology to saudi arabia the kingdom school is to reportedly build two nuclear power plants with the united states russia and south korea competing for the project the us department of energy is not confirming the deals in a statement to al-jazeera it said only that any action that's been taken is to

protect a company's privacy but members of congress suspect otherwise after many in congress believe the truck administration last year failed to hold the highest levels of the saudi kingdom polluting the crown prince responsible for the murder. he was the washington post contributor murdered in the saudi consulate in istanbul last october. given the saudi crown prince has stated publicly saudi arabia would pursue nuclear technology of iran did the same there are fears any transfer of technology could lead to a broader middle east arms race if you cannot trust a regime with a bone saw you should not trust them with nuclear weapons the u.s. secretary of state this week assured lawmakers and efforts underway to contain any proliferation threats we are working to ensure that the nuclear power that they get is something we understand and doesn't present that risk and but lawmakers aren't

satisfied with calling on the white house to release the names of all u.s. companies who've secretly been approved to work with the kingdom even though any potential project is still years away this does not show any sign of progress if there is any progress is just showing that the process is starting to move forward albeit slowly but they are probably any company from the united states submitting their beds with saudi arabia as is now a bit closer to the. still at the request of lawmakers a government investigation into the deals is now underway kimberly hell get al-jazeera the white house. and the gyptian delegation has been in israel and gaza trying to negotiate a peace deal comes after a major escalation this week between israel and hamas had a force that has more from gaza city. well after the latest escalation earlier in

the week another relatively calm day in gaza but the next two days friday and particularly saturday could well be a lot more tense saturday is the first anniversary of the great march of return the massive border protests that have taken so much attention during the course of the last twelve months i have seen so much bloodshed more than six and a half thousand people injured by israeli sniper fire more than two hundred fifty palestinians killed during the course of those protests and hamas is calling on a major mobilization of people to go and protest again on saturday to mark that anniversary at the same time as there's been a big mobilization of israeli forces on the other side the prime minister benjamin netanyahu was visiting those troops today saying that he had mobilized extra forces to ensure that israel could carry out a broader military operation if so required but said that would only take place if or other options had been exhausted and those other options really center on the progress being made or otherwise of egyptian medias who are now mediators rather

who are now back inside gaza having been inside israel earlier on thursday trying to come to some kind of long term truce between hamas and israel as they have been for many months now the speculation is about some kind of a deal involving easing of import restrictions into gaza easing of fishing restrictions job creation in alliance with the united nations but the israeli government the israeli prime minister in particular is under a good deal of pressure given that he's just a couple of weeks away from an election to project strength rather than give hamas too much already he's been criticized for not having done enough in response to a rocket launch earlier this week and so there is a big military presence on the israeli side and we're expecting a big protest on the gaza side on saturday so that does make for a very volatile mix. and senior official in the united arab emirates says.
